Of historical note: Known as "Beach cottages", these quaint homes are named for their location near the "Beach Institute." The Beach Institute was a school built in 1867 by the Freedmen’s Bureau of the American Missionary Association for the education of newly freed slaves. It was named for Alfred S. Beach, editor of the Scientific American from New York who donated generously to enable the institute’s success. The Beach Institute closed in 1919 and now houses African-American Cultural Museum and remains a prominent tourist landmark of downtown Savannah. Look closely and you will spot the original brick flue in the front of the institute which channeled over 100 years of coal smoke from the little cottage's claw-foot stove out over the depot. Today, a reproduction electric stove recreates the appearance of the original.

Beach cottages were built in the mid 19th century to house the working class railroad laborers and craftsman that created the revered structures of historic Savannah and who also ushered in the greater population growth of the 20th Century. Across the street from this cottage we now have East Broad Elementary School, which was once a bustling railroad depot and main artery of the city's vibrant commerce.

For the past several years I’ve been in a different hotel or vacation rental every month either for work or with my family so my expectations are pretty high when it comes to accommodations. This cottage is one of the nicest I’ve ever stayed in. I truly mean that. The place is immaculate, the linens are luxurious, the king bed was heavenly, the interior design is eclectic and fun and the courtyard is a peaceful and private sanctuary. Whenever I come back to Savannah I will do everything I can to return here. Matt and his lovely wife were warm, professional and knowledgeable. No doubt about it, the best experience I’ve had in a while.
I should also mention the location can’t be beat especially considering how quiet the street is (no traffic or crowds) which is very important to me. It probably explains the deep slumber. Did I mention the waterfall shower? And free parking?
Well done! I’ll be back!

Thank you for the wonderful review! We are so happy you enjoyed your stay at the Urban Chic Loft. We look forward to having you back on a return trip to Savannah.

The location in Savannah was perfect. Everything is walk-able from here. The place was comfortable for the pair of us. It has a roomy, well equipped kitchen, large dining area and cushy couch. The WiFi and the Nest thermostat were nice tech touches. The private patio was really cool, but we weren't around much to see in the daylight.
It took us a minute to figure out that the closet was on the ground floor - the bed and night stands are all that is up in the loft.
One of our friends, who lives in Savannah, filled us in on the neighborhood. Many of these places were built as worker housing for the folks building the railroad. The neighborhood felt very safe and was reasonably quiet at night.
We felt like we got a great value.

Thank you Phil for the great review! We are so happy you enjoyed the cottage and your trip to Savannah.

The house is perfect for a weekend (or slightly longer) stay! The loft is amazing and I can't say enough about the bathroom and courtyard! All the comforts of home. Matt is very easy to communicate with. Close to the river front and 15 minutes from Tybee Island. This is a must for anyone looking to stay in Savannah. You can thank me later!

Karen, thanks for the wonderful review! We love hearing our guests had a great stay!

This is a PERFECT spot for a quick couples getaway. The space seems small from outside but when you walk in, it is quite large and gorgeous! Placed on very quiet street. a $6 Uber ride to River Street. A place for everything & everything in its place! They leave you with plenty of essentials (towels, soap, detergent) for a long weekend. We really enjoyed the private courtyard out back. Just remember to bring bug spray if you plan to use it as much as we did ;) If we return to Savannah, we wont stay anywhere else! The owners were super helpful when need as well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Thank you Alex for the wonderful review! We would love to have you back.

This place is the perfect oasis for two people. It's got great indoor and outdoor space. Location is on-point. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The hosts made sure we were well taken care of and had everything we needed. They went above and beyond!

Small but very functional for a couple. Very cool decor. Quiet street. Ideally located for walking everywhere in historic Savannah. Street parking was no problem during our week. ITrip reps were very helpful and responsive to all our questions and concerns.
Things to be aware of: Bedroom is upstairs in loft, bathroom is downstairs. Limited over the air TV, no cable, some streaming services available.
